Hofskirkja is a charming turf church located in the Öræfi region of South-East Iceland. It's the youngest of the remaining turf churches in the country, built in the traditional style with rock walls and a turf-covered roof.

Nice quick stop next to the main road for some photos with the mountains in the background or setting sun.
